ShareTool update

Yazsoft has released the latest version of its Bonjour connection software, ShareTool 1.2.5. The update now allows automatic configuration of e-mail information every time the program is restarted, and adds an option to retrieve connectivity settings from e-mail clients. Users can also be re-emailed if the connection information changes while content is being shared. A status indicator in the sharing window now shows whether Internet connections are active or disruptive.

The software automatically configures routers that support NAT-PMP or UPnP. Remote services appear in Finder, iTunes, or other applications, and the compatibility has been expanded to include remote access for any program or service that uses Bonjour and runs over TCP/IP. Information is transmitted securely using SSH-encrypted connections, to anywhere in the world.

ShareTool 1.2.5 for Mac OS X 10.3.9 or higher is available with a single user license for $20, double license for $30, or five-user version for $75.
